About Hersey

Tucked into Osceola County, Hersey sits right where the Hersey River joins the Muskegon River. The village got its start during Michigan's 19th-century lumber boom, but today it is a quiet, tight-knit community that moves at a relaxed pace. Tree-lined streets and peaceful neighborhoods give the town a welcoming, understated charm that appeals to anyone looking for a slower way of living.

Hersey, Michigan (July 2026)

Life in Hersey naturally revolves around the outdoors. Having two rivers converge in town means kayaking, canoeing, and fishing are just minutes from your front door, with spots like Blodgett Landing offering easy access to the water. It feels secluded and scenic, yet you are still only a short drive from neighboring hubs like Reed City and Big Rapids for shopping, schools, and everyday essentials.
